点评:We had a most enjoyable day with Beyond the Bayou! We booked the bayou tour and the Whitney plantation combo. Even though we’ve been on a couple of bayou tours, we still learned a lot from our guide, Albert. He has a wealth of knowledge regarding wildlife, the bayou, even about Apple snails! We did see a few small alligators, but even if we hadn’t, the morning would have been well-spent as we learned so much and the bayou is just breathtaking!
Lunch was delicious, and Albert shared some more of his knowledge regarding the plantation and customs of Louisiana.
Whitney Plantation is a must see! Its story is told more from the slavery viewpoint, and the story is told well. You will leave with a better knowledge and understanding of the true history of plantation life and how hard life was for the enslaved.
I have to mention our driver, Mr. Bailey! He welcomed us warmly and took care of us for the day, and got us back right on schedule.
Hats off to him!
If you have the chance, book a tour with Beyond the Bayou—you won’t regret it!! 🙌
翻译:我们和Beyond the Bayou一起度过了极其愉快的一天!我们预订了河口游以及惠特尼种植园之旅。虽然我们之前也参加过几次河口游览,但从导游阿尔伯特那里我们依然学到了很多。他对于野生动物、河口环境,甚至苹果螺都了如指掌!我们确实看到了几只小短吻鳄,但即便没看到,这个上午也过得十分值得——我们不仅学到了大量知识,眼前的河口景色更是美得令人窒息!
午餐也非常美味。阿尔伯特还分享了更多关于路易斯安那州种植园及当地风土人情的知识。
惠特尼种植园绝对值得一游!这里的故事主要从奴隶制的角度来讲述,叙述得十分出色。参观之后,你会对种植园生活的真实历史以及被奴役者所经历的艰苦生活有更深入的了解。
我必须提一下我们的司机,贝利先生!他热情地欢迎我们,一整天都悉心照料我们,还准时把我们送回。向他致敬!如果有机会,一定要预订Beyond the Bayou的旅游服务——绝对不会让你后悔的!! 🙌
